ComradeKalinin:

Iam sending you thedraftresolutions on the Siberian
concessions which have been passed by the committee (these
drafts will be submitted to theCouncil of People’s
Commissarsfor approval possibly next
week[1]). One other
question, namely, that offood concessions, has still to be worked
out in sufficient detail.

Willyou press forward with this matter on the lines
we discussed today.

[1]TheSiberian Concessions Committee was set up by a C.P.C.
decision of October 30, 1920, and on November 16 it submitted itsdraft decree to the C.P.C. The latter appointed an ad hoc
committee (V. I. Lenin, D. I. Kursky, A. M. Lezhava, V. P.
Milyutin and S. P. Sereda) to rework and edit the draft decree
within a week. On November 23, the C.P.C. adopted a decree on
concessions and approved the committee’s proposal to publish a
pamphlet on concessions. At the end of 1920, it appeared under
the title0 kontsessiyakh. Dekret Soveta. Narodnykh Komissarov ot
23 noyabrya 1920 g. Tekst dekreta. Obyekty kontsessii. Karty. (On
Concessions. Decree of the Council of People’s Commissars of
November 23, 1920. Text of the Decree. Concessions’ Objects. Maps.)
